about

Check out Pudra, an extremely talented producer/beat maker out of Montreal, Quebec who has been creating a buzz on multiple music platforms after releasing his highly anticipated LP “illstrumental”.
His style of music utilizes creative contextual sampling techniques and orchestration that pays homage to the prominent Golden Age of hip-hop with some of the best producers of our era. The trippy metaphysical elements of the instrumentals provide a divine essence of meticulousness that is embedded into each song. There are subtle complexities that cannot be overlooked like the ambient soundscapes contrasted with the heavy handed bell tones while remaining stagnate to solidly compressed drum break. The gritty texture encapsulated on each instrumental illustrates a unique abstract sound that remains fluid throughout the course of the LP. He creates an interesting but effective contrast where the production is seemingly complex and dynamics of the music remain intricate & congruent to the compositions. Pudra definitely resonates an authentic feel to his music that is rare in hip-hop’s contemporary industry with an oversaturation of copy/paste club-type rap producers. I personally admire when talented artists can bring back traditional styles of music and transform them into something new and original. I think the word that best describes Pudra’s style and production would be refreshing as this artist has definitely found his true north in the genre. There are far too many beat makers out there that sound similar and do not possess enough assets that set themselves apart from others. I loved the analog warmth of the album; it brings out colored characteristics where saturators were prevalent from tape distortion. Most independent artists just want to push any song out no matter what the quality; you have to respect musicians who put that much time and dedication into their artwork making it perfect. I would recommend listening to this LP with headphones to take in the minute details that highly distinguish the personality of Pudra’s songs. The multifaceted production approach that is put forth embodies varying mechanisms put forth in an algorithm of masterful performance artistry. I am really excited to see this producer blossom and it seems as though he has found his mark in the music industry. Check out Pudra’s intricate productions if you want to hear great, conscious music that is leading this hip-hop in the right direction!
